Santa and the Space Museum

Not together, though that would be Bryce's absolute dream come true I think!!! We spent last weekend in Huntsville with my sister and her husband and Cappy getting ready for baby Jude's arrival. Sunday we took Bryce to the Space and Rocket museum. He had a BLAST! We saw a 3D movie that was super cute. Bryce kept his glasses on the whole time and even tried to grab at a couple of things in front of him. Too funny!

Santa came to Bryce's school today. Even though it wasn't a scheduled school day for Bryce the teachers let the Tues./Thurs. kids come today just to see Santa. He was excited to see him but wasn't too sure if he would sit in his lap or not. His teachers and all the other kids were sitting on the stage waiting for Santa to come in and read a story to them. Bryce refused to go up there. He wanted to sit with me. Oh well. But when Santa walked in his face lit up! He was so excited! He stood up from the table, said bye mama and followed Santa right up on the stage! He didn't stop at his class though, Bryce kept on walking at sat right at Santa's feet! It was so cute!! After the story each child got to sit on Santa's lap and take a picture and tell them what they wanted for Christmas. I turned my head to talk to another mom and Bryce waltzed back up on stage to sit in Santa's lap. All by himself! Luckily I caught it and got my friend to snap a picture for me. He told santa he wants a "nice, big truck" for Christmas.

This one is priceless! Santa is here!!!

Surprising news.....

My sister is 38 weeks pregnant with her first child. They had an ultrasound at 20 weeks and it was decided that she was carrying a girl, who they were going to name Winnie. We have all bonded with Winnie and gone CRAZY buying pink stuff. The room is finished (though not painted pink) and Blakeley and Hunter were so excited to bring baby Winnie home soon. They had an ultrasound today to confirm the baby's position and were very surprised to learn that baby Winnie is actually a BOY! Oh my.

They are so happy the baby is healthy and will learn to love their boy, but they feel like they lost a little girl today. I'm so sad for them. I am headed to Huntsville this weekend armed with tons of blue. We will get them through this and in no time forget the sadness this day has brought. Maybe we will even laugh about it one day? Here is a link to their new blog (the old one was titled winniecwilliams so they decided to change it) http://huntandblake.blogspot.com/

Our Christmas Tree

We had so much fun picking out our tree yesterday. We drove out to a you cut it place about an hour away. Bryce loved running through the trees. We came home and had hot chocolate while we decorated the tree. Here are some pictures.

Thanksgiving

We had a wonderful Thanksgiving this year. We always have lunch with my dad's mom's family (usually about 60 people there each year!) at my Aunt and Uncle's house in Pine Level, AL. They have alot of land and Uncle Dave has a lot of farm equipment. Bryce loves it there! The weather was perfect so we spent all day there on hay rides, 'driving' the tractor, and sledding behind the tractor. Here are some pictures:
